Summary
"How do you think fairy tales and legends get started? Even the craziest ones have to come from somewhere." -- Qrow Branwen
The "Four Maidens/Story of the Seasons" tale is one of the foundations of RWBY. It's grown smooth and pretty over hundreds of retellings by a persuasive wizard. But what really happened?

Summary
Because volume 7 has spurred so many of us on to new heights of Qrow love, and as of chapter 6 it hasn't broken our hearts...yet... so it's bird appreciation season in Atlas.

Summary
Kukri kept sending me media about “Robbing the Hood” and telling me to watch it, that I’d understand what was going on better if I did, but I had no interest in watching people rob Hoods, whatever those were. I didn’t like robbing in real life (I did it because I had to not because I wanted to) and I doubted I’d like it in media.
Shortly after hacking its governor module, a rogue SecUnit is involved in an ill-fated space battle and finds itself alone save for the company of a mourning raider ship bot pilot. It would like to spend the rest of its life watching media in what remains of the ship's crew quarters, but it turns out that "the rest of its life" wouldn't be long at all without the money to pay for proper maintenance. There seems to be only one way to get that money.

Summary
I’d locked eyes with Mensah, looking like that. My energy weapons had deployed, without my awareness or direction. My targeting systems had identified her and Bharadwaj, quite insistently, as direct and immediate threats.
Maybe this is just a temporary, dangerous, system glitch, and a hard restart will fix me. I’ll just restart, comb through my code, do some debugging, find the corrupted files or whatever, and then I won’t indiscriminately murder my most trusted humans.
I should know by now to always assume the worst.
In which SecUnit is having some survival threat…response errors. And some…’targeting its humans’ malfunctions. And some…blackouts when restarting. I’m sure it’s fine.

Summary
On a corporate owned mining asteroid in the depths of the Corporation Rim, a group of plucky, heroic, indentured humans have just decided to make their first move in a daring escape plan. Said first move is a deceptively simple hack, putting control of their corporate overlords' single, overworked SecUnit into their hands.
Little do they know, this murderbot is already hacked.

Summary
Between studying for her doctorate, delving into the political scene, and preparing for her first child, Ayda Mensah has a lot on her plate— which is exactly how she likes it. Right now, her biggest complaint is that Council Member Zjem has assigned her to conducting an audit on seized corporate assets, instead of the interesting job of helping orient new refugees.
At least, until she discovers a pod with a very unusual piece of technology inside it: an un-activated SecUnit.
